8 In many cases it is grammatically correct to use either por or para in a sentence. However, the meaning of each sentence is different. Trabajó por su tío. He worked for (in place of) his uncle. Trabajó para su tío. He worked for his uncle( s company). Copyright 2014 Vista Higher Learning. All rights reserved

9 Preposition: para The reasons for using para can easily be remembered with the acronym PRODDS: Purpose Recipient Opinion Destination Deadline Standard PURPOSE: Para is used with an infinitive to express the purpose of doing something. The phrase in order to is sometimes used in front of an infinitive to indicate purpose. The following example sentences show the use of para when the speaker is stating a purpose: Trabajamos para ganar dinero. We work to earn money. Viajo para entender las otras culturas. I travel in order to understand other cultures. Coma las legumbres para la salud. Eat vegetables for health. Esta agua es para beber. This water is for drinking.

10 RECIPIENT: The intended recipient of an object is indicated with the preposition para. Yo traje la comida para mi abuela. I brought the meal for my grandmother. An exception to this rule is when you want to express the recipient of an emotion, which is done with por. Siento mucho amor por mi abuela. I feel much love for my grandmother. OPINION: Para is also used to indicate a personal opinion. Para mí los derechos humanos son importantes. In my opinion, human rights are important. Las compañías grandes son importantes para el líder. The big companies are important to the leader. DESTINATION: Para is used to indicate the destination of something in a real, physical sense or in a figurative, metaphorical sense. Las toallas son para el baño. The towels are for the bathroom. Salimos para las islas del Caribe mañana. We leave for the Caribbean Islands tomorrow.

11 DEADLINE: Para is used to indicate a deadline or due date. El proyecto es para el veinte de mayo. The project is due the 20th of May. Es necesario terminar el programa para las dos. It's necessary to finish the program by two o'clock. STANDARD: The standard is what is considered normal. To express that something strays from the norm, the preposition for is used in an expression like, She's very cool for a teacher. In Spanish, this expression of something that is contrary to the established or understood standard is stated using para. Su hijo habla muy bien para su edad. His son speaks very well for his age. Para ser extranjera, ella habla inglés bien. For being a foreigner, she speaks English well.

12 Preposition: por The reasons for using por can easily be remembered with the acronym DEEMMMS: Duration Emotions Exchange Motivation Means Movement Substitution DURATION: Por is used to express the duration of time, or the length of time something lasts. Vivimos en Puerto Rico por dos años. We lived in Puerto Rico for two years. EMOTIONS: The recipient of an emotion is expressed with the preposition por. Don't forget that para is used for the recipient of everything other than emotions. Su amor no es por mí. His love is not for me.

13 EXCHANGE: When one thing is exchanged for another as in when money is exchanged for something. Talia pagó veinte dólares por los zapatos. Talia paid twenty dollars for the shoes. Quiero darte mi coche por tu coche. I want to give you my car (in exchange) for your car. Whether or not you realize it, when you thank someone, you are exchanging your words of gratitude for something that has been done for you or given to you. For this reason, por is used after gracias, or the verb agradecer (to thank). Los estudiantes les agradecen a sus maestros por las lecciones. The students thank the teachers for the lessons. Te doy las gracias por tu ayuda. I give you thanks for your help. MOTIVATION: Motivation is the equivalent to the English expression due to. If you could replace the Spanish preposition with due to, then the Spanish preposition should be por. Motivation is the cause behind it rather than the goal in front of it. The following examples show the different uses of por and para: Tengo muchas muestras de champú por el viaje de negocios. I have many samples of shampoo due to the business trip. Tengo muchas muestras de champú para el viaje. I have many samples of shampoo for the trip.
